... packed with great new features!

Thanks to the valuable feedback of our many clients, Borran Software continues to make upgrades and improvements to our flagship RealBroker program. In fact, since 1986, RealBroker (previously known as Brewin, among others) has a long history of improvements and upgrades based on the feedback of our clients.Taking all these comments to heart, Borran Software has just released RealBroker5 — the most comprehensive, integrated accounting and transaction management system in North America. Some of the upgrades in this new version include:

• PAPERLESS OFFICE: Integrate your data and simplify your administrative tasks with a single, paperless entry. Add Connect! 1.5 to RealBroker.
• FAVORITE REPORTS TAB: Instead of looking through thousands of report options, you can now save your frequently used reports in one area for quick and easy re-use.
• DIRECT DEPOSIT IS NOW AVAILABLE: With RealBroker5, you can make payments to sales agents and vendors directly through your bank account. (* Merchant fees may apply).
• TRANSACTION/DEAL CHECKLIST: Eliminate the need for a manual checklist placed in every sales transaction.
• NEW LABELING FUNCTION FOR DEAL SHEET: This function enables you to customize RealBroker5 for your business.
• RUN BANK BALANCE ANYTIME: While you're in check payment, receipt entry or payroll, you can see the bank balance at anytime.
• EMAIL FORMS AND REPORTS: RealBroker5 has a new function that enables you to easily email forms and reports to anyone.
• CREDIT CARDS CAN NOW BE PROCESSED WITHIN REALBROKER: Agent expenses can now be paid with a Credit Card within RealBroker5. You can also easily edit the amount to be charged on the credit card within the program. (* Merchant fees may apply).
• GIVE YOUR AGENTS INDIVIDUAL SALES DOCUMENTS, AUTOMATICALLY: Now, with RealBroker5, you can print or email sales documents with the sales commission on a PER AGENT basis. This means that you can maintain the privacy of each agent, while sharing information on an individual basis.
• SAVE TIME TRANSFERRING TRUST FUNDS: Previously, when you had a cancelled deal, you would have to delete the trust funds from the canceled sale and apply it again to the new sale. There was no way of simply transferring the funds. With RealBroker5, this unusual type of transaction is now included as a new option.
• ADD EXTRA COSTS TO YOUR SALES PRICE
• MICR CHECK PRINTING

These upgrades are included in your RealBroker package at no extra charge. If you are interested in upgrading to RealBroker5, contact us as support@borran.com.If you are a Brewin customer, ask us about upgrading to RealBroker5. Contact us at sales@borran.com.

New Connect! 1.5 now released!

Borran Software has created a new and improved version of Connect!. This new version 1.5 is a simplified version of all the core features of Connect 1.0. We've stripped out all the extras that are unnecessary for many offices and tightened up the program so that it works well with the majority of real estate offices. We've also made some improvements so that the program is more streamlined.Connect! 1.5 includes the following features:

• INTEGRATION WITH REALBROKER (including Listing/Agent import/export): We've streamlined the flow of information so that sales, listings, and agent information move smoothly between RealBroker and Connect 1.5, throughout your office and among your franchises.
• MLS EXPORT/IMPORT: You can easily populate your database from your local MLS listing information. Borran Software will assist you in setting up an agreement with your local MLS to export your listings data for your own internal uses (such as auto-populating the listings on your company's website). (* Additional fees may apply).
• AUTO-POPULATE DATA: Eliminate dual entry. You can auto-populate your data into other office applications using Connect 1.5. Imagine that with one quick task, all of your listings, sales or other data can be exported to your Intranet, your Website, to RealBroker, and other office applications.
• LISTINGS MANAGEMENT: We've improved Connect's listing entry forms, search capabilities and listings management functions.
• SHOWINGS MANAGER: Easily manage and monitor the status of your showings with Showings Manager. Send post-showing follow-up questionnaires, and share the results with your sellers.
• ACTION PLANS: Keep in touch with all your clients, leads and farming area using client action plans. Use our huge catalog of professional-quality templates, or create and send your own!
• CALENDAR: With online access to your appointments and tasks, you don't have to stay in the office to keep on top of your schedule. Share your calendar with your team to ensure that appointments are never missed.
• CONTACT MANAGER: Keep a central place for all your contacts so that you or any member of your team always has access to your important client information.

Top 5 RealBroker Tips and Tricks

1. DO MORE WITH ONE JOURNAL ENTRY: Press F5 to populate all of your agent's Accounts Receivables and Accounts Payables.
2. DO MONTHLY CHARGES FOR THE GROUP: Save time on your monthly Journal Entries or Accounts Payables by putting your agents into a GROUP. Go to TOOLS>PERSONNEL. Add your agents to the group. Then when you do your monthly Account Payables, insert the group into your Accounts Receivables header. It will then automatically bring in all your agents' Accounts Receivable accounts for you.
3. YELLOW MEANS EXTRA OPTIONS: If you've seen a yellow right-click button, this means that there is a pick list or other options to choose from.
4. SHORTCUT FOR REVERSING A CHECK: You don't have to go into accounting to reverse a check. You can do it under sales.
5. INFINITE ARCHIVE: Did you know that you can view the full information from all and any archived sale forever?
